Radio Navigationhard#1175
Super-refraction of radio waves occurs when:
A
There is no wind
B
Temperature decreases rapidly with altitude
C
Humidity is very low
D
Temperature increases with altitude (temperature inversion)
CorrectExplanation
Super-refraction occurs during temperature inversions where the refractive index decreases more rapidly than normal, bending radio waves toward the surface and extending range.
